Chatteris Cricket Ground is a cricket ground in Chatteris, Cambridgeshire. The first recorded match on the ground was in 1832, when Cambridge Town Club played the Marylebone Cricket Club in the ground's only first-class match.[1] The ground was first used for Minor Counties Championship cricket when Cambridgeshire played Lincolnshire in 1967. From 1967 to 1971, the ground hosted 4 Minor Counties Championship matches, the last of which saw Cambridgeshire play Bedfordshire[2] Chatteris CC was formed in 1879 and it is uncertain if the field used in 1832 is the same one currently used by the town club in Wenny Road.[3]
